We could potentially make the default URL to be "some" cgi url,
and have the build system specify the  URL all the time, in our
case it would be the Oracle documentation URL.

Would this be an acceptable approach ?

Hello,

As explained in the JBS issue [1], this new taglet enables API documents
to contain the extLink tag to link external sources.

Please review the webrev [2].
Changes looks good.

Just a reflection: This is heavily biased to Oracle documentation. Even
if it's possible to override the URL via a system property, it assumes
the Oracle URL format and id name. Just wondering a bit how that fits
with the OpenJDK philosophy.

I have to agree, this is not at all general purpose but totally Oracle documentation centric.
